Two Elbonians each have a tin can with string held up to their ears. One Elbonian says, "This is the Elbonian Fulfillment Service. How may I thwart you?"

The Elbonians continue listening to their tin cans. One Elbonian hears, "Grunt grunt grunt grunt grunt."

The Elbonian holds his tin can away from his ear and says to the pig, "Okay, it wasn't funny the first 300 times either."
